Description
DISCOVER the cuisine from this FASCINATING region through 75 AUTHENTIC recipes from renowned expert María José Sevilla.
La Cocina Vasca explores the cooking and traditions of Spain's most EXCITING food destination.
Home to some of the world’s MOST CELEBRATED restaurants and chefs, with the city of SAN SEBASTIAN at its heart that proudly has 16 Michelin-starred restaurants.
Few cuisines have captured more imaginations than that of Spain, but ask a Spaniard where to find the best food in the country and the reply will most certainly be ‘in the Basque Country’. The culinary traditions of the region are among the most fascinating in the world and in La Cocina Vasca María José Sevilla takes readers on an illuminating tour. Along the way she introduces iconic ingredients, unique cooking techniques and traditional dishes that have inspired some of today’s most celebrated chefs.
An introduction to Basque cooking, ranging from bite-sized tapas known as pintxos to more substantial fish and meat plates as well as delicious desserts, including the legendary Basque Cheesecake. Illuminating essays that shine a light on the most interesting aspects of historical food traditions, as well as the modern scene, are set against a backdrop of the stunning images of the people and surrounding landscape.
